The catalog's full title is 'Instructive Optical Toys. Magic Lanterns, Dissolving View Apparati, Sciopticons, Cinematographs, large collection of new slides in sets. Stereoscopes. Magnifying glasses, Reading glasses'. It was part of a larger catalog of German toy producer Gebrüder Bing from Nuremberg, issued in 1906. This English version of the catalog was issued for international distribution. The producer used the English translation of their name: Bing Brothers. The digital version only shows the section (pages 228-270).
